It was just before ten pm on a Friday and despite the fact that we were promised a rainless day, it had not ceased pouring down rain! Ray and I were sitting there going over the recent rugby results, at the ready for the 6th telephone call of the day to come in. In due time we got a call from a lovely women on a company expedition who had arrived at the Shell filling station in Great Hinton and put petrol in a diesel stylish Honda Civic GX rental car. The poor lady was rather agitated apparently, stating "I simply can't believe that I have destroyed the car! I am so accustomed to filling up my petrol vehicle I totally forgot that I was operating a diesel!" I asked her to calm down and not to fret, and also that things like this happen. She had managed to maneuver the vehicle into a safe spot and, as it was just a few miles off from us, we could get to the woman almost instantly. The incorrect fuel was taken out and she was able to get back to the hotel she was lodging in. Despite the fact that we got very wet, it was all rewarding seeing her drive away calm and not so anxious. A misfuel correction in Wiltshire done well in my opinion!

The 3 things you NEED to know about Wrong Fuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is unleaded or diesel, is certainly a significant situation to take care of in a vehicle - particularly in modern-day common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue in your fuel tank is going to produce idling problems, uneven running, increased smoke and, if not sorted out correctly, possibly broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to remove in comparison with water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to handle both situations pretty simply.

You should know however that if ever the vehicle was started on the water contaminated fuel it will very likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the previous one will likely be completely water-logged and useless.

We can easily come to refill your car any time you are having difficulty on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or even at home.

How to find out if I put the wrong fuel in my car?

If you’ve just filled up at a petrol station and the cars starts to act a bit strange you might start to wonder if you accidentally put the wrong fuel in it.

Well, there are a few things to can check that will be able to tell you:

  1. How is the car responding? There are some very common misfuel symptoms which can be a good indicator of wrong fuel:
    • Loss of engine power – can feel like the car has run out of fuel
    • A lot of smoke (more than usual)
    • Engine coughing or starting to splutter
    • Won’t start – or keeps stalling.
  2. Look at your fuel receipt. It will state clearly if you filled up with diesel or unleaded. If you don’t have the receipt, you can often return to the petrol station where you filled up and give them the date and time (and pump) where you refueled and they will often be able to give you a VAT receipt.
  3. Smell it. Diesel and petrol have very distinctly different smells. Anyone familiar with the motor industry should be able to help you with this. Or you could even get another car to park alongside and smell the fuel caps of both, comparing them to determine what the fuel type is.
  4. Call us to come out and assess the car. In the majority of cases we will be able to tell if the car has been misfueled before beginning work on it. If we discover that the vehicle does not need a fuel drain, you will only be charged a call-out fee.
